This usually works out at about 45 minutes for a track with a sampling rate of 44100 Hz. If tracks are too long, plug-ins ...

Re: How to Increase Sound Levels of mp3 Music Files Without Clipping?

Re: Audacity Clean and Modern theme

I like the coloured icons and flatter (small) buttons (such as the tools toolbar).
Personally I like light themes, though not everyone does.

On Windows 10 I get thsi same error method, but I cannot change any of those settings because the drop-down menus are blank. What can I do?
Look in the Windows Sound Control Panel and ensure that you have at least one working recording device and one working playback device.

Re: Dropped Hard Drive - Recovering AU Files

That .au file appears to have a valid file name and a valid size, but no valid data. Every byte is zero, so there is (literally) nothing to be recovered.

Are you using a supported operating system (Windows 8 or earlier)?
Does the device work with Cubase (apparently Cubase LE5 was supplied with the device)
